Moving Out: Protect Your Deposit

Landlords in Dubai usually inspect the property against its condition at move-in before returning the security deposit. Grease in the oven, limescale in the bathroom and dust on the AC vents are common reasons for deductions. A professional deep clean before handover deals with all of them. Use our move-out cleaning checklist to check nothing is missed.

Moving In: Start Clean

You do not know how well the last tenant cleaned. A deep clean before your furniture arrives means every cupboard and surface is clean before you unpack. It is also the right time to book AC duct cleaning, because you cannot know when it was last done.

Plan the Timing

• Book for after the movers leave (move-out) or before they arrive (move-in).
• Arrange building access and any permits yourself; the team needs full access.
• Keep the water and electricity connected until the clean is finished.

Not Included

Outdoor sheds, storage areas and gardens are not included. Special requests can sometimes be accommodated depending on the scope of work and schedule.
